I scream

Last weekend, SE didn't finish her baby food. It's a first for this baby who has chomped down almost everything happily since she started solids. She clammed up and looked up or away when offered her food. When repeatedly offered the same thing, what happened was...

My food is not nice!

I cannot eat it! Take it away!

What could be the problem? Maybe she's teething? But baby food doesn't need chewing. Maybe she's not well? She has no fever and seems active as normal. Maybe it's time to add seasoning to her food? Or just maybe, the cause of the problem was something else...

Hubby: Nah, papa give you something to eat

Notice what hubby is holding behind the wine glass (circled area). That is not her Avent container of baby food but... Haagen Dazs ice cream!

She didn't totally go hungry. At dinner she pulled apart our potato wedges and spread them on the table. Then she started putting them in her mouth. After a while I noticed there really wasn't much potato on the table, even piecing together the dismembered parts. Wedges are pretty salty and I suppose they met her newly-elevated standards! Need I start adding seasoning to her food? Will wait and see how the next few meals are received.
